Poaching methods of old

[Guest jbswildlife]

i wish the law was not a factor in this as some of the old style were brill but could cost you a arm and a leg today

[Guest smashygadge]

classic ones got to be shooting moon lit phesants with 410 or airrifle?

 

lamping phesent in trees is efective pop them with rifle and dog to pickup or jump them quick lol and i used to do it because half the reason i cannot get most my permision is because of these shooting hoots and it winds me up.

I have heard that some people leave lines attached to the banks of rivers, with a strong monofilament, barbed hook, and a large split shot 12" from the hook and a bundle of worms.

I presume that having baited such a contraption, they then visit later on in the day, perhaps in darkness and retrieve their quarry.

It would seem that in order to be prolificc, multiple lines would need to be set.

Never seen it my self
